“Ground-bone” ceremony marks the start of construction

A symbolic ceremony—grunnbeinnedleggelse—is held in connection with Andøydagan, inspired by archaeological finds of whale bone used in historic building foundations. Community leaders and project representatives participate, and young people share hopes for the ocean. The event is hosted by Camilla Ilmoni and 14-year-old Elliot Meier, who delivers a closing message about caring for the ocean.
